In Greek mythology, Orion was a demigod hunter, son of sea-god Poseidon, and grandson of Minos, the King of Crete. He had threatened to kill every creature on earth, and was killed by a scorpion. In tribute, Zeus placed Orion amongst the constellations, adding the scorpion there also (Scorpio).

 

I took this shot hand-held, as I didn't have my tripod with me - there's a bit of camera-shake going on (as you might expect with a 1/4th second exposure time) but even so, I'm surprised how well this shot came out. You can even see the colour of the brighter stars.

 

Betelgeuse (red giant) is in the top-left, Bellatrix (blue) is in the top-right.

 

The belt is comprised (left to right) of Alnitak (blue), Alnilam (blue), and Mintaka (blue-white).

 

Saiph (blue) is in the bottom-left, and Rigel (blue-white) is in the bottom-right.

 

Orion's sword is represented by the stars Theta Orionis, Iota Orionis, and 42 Orionis, plus the Orion Nebula, the Messier 43 Nebula, and the Running Man Nebula.

The 'Running Man Nebula' (NGC1977) in Orion... this is a horribly grainy pic grabbed from the M42 image taken on March 23rd. It's had to be processed to hell to get the nebula visible, but its shape is now clearly there.

 

Gonna try and image this properly later with a LOT more data.

Here is my feeble first attempt at The Running Man. It’s a reflection nebula located 1600 light years away in the constellation Orion… I can really use more data. This is a stack of 100, 10 second exposures at ISO 2000. No filters. Shot Alt/Az with an unmodified Nikon D5300, using a 10” f6.3 Meade LX200 EMC. Stacked in Deep Sky Stacker, Processed in GIMP.

Some very large promences on the Sun this morning, this group in close proximity. It almost looks like the solar version of the Running Man nebula in the middle.

 

Taken with my Quark through a 70mm refractor using my Basler Ace mono CCD. False colour added after. The pink solar ball showing the location was through eyepiece projection.

The sword region of the constellation Orion. The great Orion Nebula [Messier M42] appears just below center of this image...and the fainter M43 area above it to the left of center. The faint Running Man nebula appears just above left of center. Image taken with a Vixen SS80ED refractor, guided with a piggybacked Meade 10 inch LX50 SCT, Both scopes mounted on an Orion Atlas EQ/G mount. An Orion Starshoot Pro Color camera was used to take 10 of 5 minute light images with a number of dark and flat correction images. These were processed with MaximDL Essentials and then stacked with DeepSkyStacker. Final lens corrections at the periphery and color adjustments were done in Photoshop CS3. Images were taken in my suburban back yard on a moonlit night in November 2009. (copyright Michael Herman 2009)

Clear nights seem to be a rarity at the moment so I only managed just under an hour of imaging.
